Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field development, and specifically relates to a titanium-based quantum dot nano-composite high-performance water-decomposing and locking agent and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Water seepage during the production process or in the later stage of gas wells causes some seepage channels to be blocked due to water lock, resulting in a gradual decrease in gas production. At the same time, for low-permeability gas reservoir conditions such as the Ordos Basin, hydraulic fracturing is a key measure to improve reservoir conditions and increase production and efficiency. However, during the post-fracturing flowback process, the water lock effect is a key factor affecting the efficiency of fracturing fluid flowback, and it is also one of the main causes of reservoir damage in the near-wellbore area. Therefore, removing water lock is an effective way to restore reservoir seepage conditions, reduce damage and maintain gas well production capacity. The main cause of water lock is that the capillary resistance caused by the excessive gas-water surface tension and part of the condensate-water interfacial tension blocks the gas flow channel. It can be seen that only by reducing the surface / interfacial tension of the water phase can the purpose of removing water lock be achieved.

[0003] Therefore, most common water-locking agents are mainly surfactants, including anionic, nonionic, amphoteric, gemini, and pseudo-tetrasodium surfactants. However, in order to further improve the surface activity of water-locking agents, the surface tension reduction performance of water-locking agents is improved by compounding different types of surfactants. Among them, functional nanomaterials and surfactants have significant synergistic effects and have been widely studied as efficient water-locking agents. However, conventional nanomaterials are limited by particle size and native dispersibility, and it is difficult to exert their due performance in low permeability reservoirs.
